Men's Walking Group

Time for a "Pub Lunch Walk". Nine of us headed down the Malahat for a stroll around the Upper Gorge Waterway. We logged about 8 to 9 Km and finished off with a beer and lunch at the Four Mile Pub. Map and pics below. -- DeNNis.

We parked the cars at Canadian Tire on Admirals Rd (near top left) and did a clockwise loop around the Gorge waterway, then did a counter-clockwise loop to the Four Mile Pub and back down "A1" (the old Island HiWay) to the Canadian Tire store.
